TGFO

Thank god February is over. This has been the worst month I've ever had playing. After careful review I didn't end up a loser this month, but it's damn close. I'm sure if I hadn't deposited money when I was in Arizona, I would have been down.

Tuesday played out much like the rest of the month, but I did book a win @ +$142. The whole thing was pretty uneventful.

Wednesday was a day of madness. The Duke had been telling me about Aussie Millions (AM), a guy that he played with a day or two earlier and how crazy he was. I get a text when I roll out of bed at 2 that the Duke and Highwaytime are at PH playing with Aussie Millions, go go gadget wardrobe.

I show up to a full game and I see this guy losing his mind. Some minor convincing from the Duke and AM is making it $60 dark, I know this is going to be a good game. I get in the game and I'm catching great cards.

I made one play that against a player in their right mind would work, but a crazy old Asian man that looked like a beta called me down. I make it $17 pre-flop with 7d-7h he calls and the flop comes K Q 10 all hearts. I bet the pot and he calls, turn is another heart I lead out again cause it just seems like he doesn't really know what he's doing, $75 to go and he flat calls. Now I'm in trouble. The river is a rag and I toss my last $40 or so in there and he calls with As-8h!?!?!? Wow, no pair on the flop and an 8 high flush and he gets all his money in there, unreal. Needless to say I made a play against the wrong person and my 7-high flush was no good.

The remainder of the session was brutal I had my AA cracked by AKos in a $500 pot when a K hit on the flop then another on the turn. I later had AA cracked by K7 in a $600 pot when AM calls my $60 pre-flop re-raise and flops 2 pair with it. Typical February crap.

I pulled a short buy after the K7 debacle and managed to nurse my $100 back up to $700. The day ended as a loss, but it could have been much worse with the way the cards were falling. Thank god February is over.

The name February is believed to have derived from the name 'Februa' taken from the Roman 'Festival of Purification'. The root 'februo' meaning 'I purify by sacrifice'.
